Conduritol F Glucosides and Terpenoid Glucosides from Cynanchum liukiuense and Distribution of Conduritol F Glucosides in Several Asclepiadaceous Plants

Conduritol F 3-O- and 4-O-glucosides were obtained from Cynanchum liukiuense, along with conduritol F which was identified in all Asclepiadaceous plants examined, Tylophora tanakae, Asclepias curassavica and A. fruticosa, as well as in Marsdenia tomentosa. The pattern of the glucosidic linkage to conduritol F differed between individual species, 2-O-glucoside from T. tanakae and M. tomentosa, 3-O-glucoside from A. curassavica, but none from A. fruticosa. Along with conduritol F glucosides, an 11-glucosyloxy-megastigmane and a monoterpenoid glucoside were isolated from C. liukiuense.
